Technologically advanced rat people. Ugly, evil creatures that spread plague wherever they go and topple kingdoms for fun and profit. Due to their chronic backstabbing disorder, nobody trusts them, likes them, or wants to be 'allies' with them. Rather bitey.
Clans
They are made up of many clans, the most important ones being:
Clan Pestiliens (Plague monks and guro fetishists)
Clan Eshin (Ninja rats and assassins)
Clan Moulder (Master Mutators)
Clan Skryre (Steampunk rats that are the 'leaders' of the race, and use radioactive arquebi and magitek. Also DOOMWHEELS).
Society
As you may expect, Skaven society is rather literally cutthroat when it comes to promotions. Despite their teamkilling tendencies, they obey the Grey Seers, the prophets of their god, THE HORNED RAT, without question. Except for the other Grey Seers.
Army
Skaven are your standard horde army. Lots of cheap vermin, backed up by more expensive and/or specialized units. Also, DOOMWHEELS.
Fun Facts
- Grey Seers regularly ride giant bells on scaffolds into battle.
- DOOMWHEELS.
Backstabbing little bastards, they'll fuck you up five different ways without you even knowing about it. If you're lucky.
DIE DIE MANTHINGS!
The above sentence clearly illustrates the quirks of skaven language: they often say certain words twice (words like "die die" and "fool fool" are popular) Also, they often end the name of a species with the suffix -things, so manthings, dwarfthings etc. etc.
